Egoli (City of Gold)

Oh thina sisebenzela oCherry bethu eGoli "city of gold" (repeat)

In the city of gold the mineworkers work one, two, three miles underground.
There is water, up to here, and so they have to wear boots.
It is dark and dangerous, they are alone.
But by slapping their boots they can communicate to one another.

Awu 'soyihlaba ngamunye ngamunye. Uzosala Vakani. Thina asihambeni.
Nayi ingoma bafowethu. Awuswa!
